Here, you can select the global import options and settings.

 

Global selection:

 

•Load default selection - selects objects preselected in Step 1
•Select all objects - selects all objects
•Select only new objects - selects only objects which are new
•Deselect all objects - selects none of the objects

 

Import settings

 

•Update site definition - displayed only when importing to an existing site; if enabled, all settings stored as a part of the site object will be updated with those contained in the package; these settings are contained in the Site\cms_site.xml file inside the export package

 

The second to fifth of the following options will be offered only when importing a whole site.

 

•Update site definition - displayed only when importing to an existing site; if enabled, all settings stored as a part of the site object will be updated with those contained in the package; these settings are contained in the Site\cms_site.xml file inside the export package
•Assign all objects to the imported site (recommended) - if checked, all imported site-related objects will be assigned to the imported site
•Run the site after import - if checked, the imported site will be run after the import process finishes
•Delete incomplete site when import fails - if checked, incompletely imported site will be deleted when the import process fails
•Import files (recommended) - some objects in the database are linked with physical files in the file system; if you check this check-box, such files contained in the package will be imported too
•Overwrite system queries - if checked, system queries will be overwritten by those contained in the package
•Do not import objects where parent object is missing - if checked, child objects whose parent objects are not found will be skipped and the import process will continue
•Import tasks (recommend) - if checked, delete tasks (incremental deployment) included in the package will be performed

 

 

 

Overwrite system queries

 

This option is displayed only when importing from version older than the current one; if checked, all queries from the package will be imported and will overwrite the current ones; if the package contains your own custom queries that you added to the system, it is necessary to have this option enabled.
